Chapter 34 Returning with a Full Load
"It's a big herring, it's rarely near the shore, it's hard to catch, and I've only caught about a dozen of them since I can remember, but none of them are as big as this one. ”
Wu took the fourth one off the hook, and instead of taking the hook again, he walked to Fengyun's side and looked at the big fish that had been pierced through the head by the brute and died.
"yes. It definitely ranks in the top 10 of all the fish I've seen. ”
Storm also seemed to sigh a little.
"Cloud, the fishing tackle you invented can indeed catch a lot of fish, and I decided to reward you. In the future, you can keep all the fish you catch without turning them over to the tribe. In addition, whoever catches fish in the tribe and how many fish you catch, you can get a 10%. ”
"Wu, your reward is too heavy, isn't it?"
Before Fengyun could say anything, the storm screamed.
"Storm, you're wrong. My reward for the cloud is not heavy, but light. With the fishing gear invented by the cloud, everyone can get a lot of fish, and more importantly, they don't have to risk their lives like hunting. If it weren't for the fact that the tribe needed a lot of meat to grow, I would have increased the reward. ”
Wu turned his head to look at Fengyun.
"Yun, you don't blame me for being too stingy, do you?"
"No, it won't. The reward for me has been very rich. ”
Fengyun really didn't expect Wu to give him such a heavy reward.
The way he came up with to get fish was to sell fishing gear to people in the tribe.
He has a king beast tooth knife, and it is easy to make a fishing hook.
He knew that the fibers of the wire vine could be twisted into fishing lines, and that if he did a good job of secrecy enough, he could even monopolize the entire tribe's fishing gear market.
At that time, all kinds of fish will not be rolling.
"I'm relieved that you'll be able to accept it. ”
Wu nodded, a satisfied smile.
"Everyone hurry up and go fishing, and we will go back after collecting the fishing card. ”
"What are you going back for?
Storm interjected on the side.
"It's not. I want to let everyone know as soon as possible that the cloud has invented efficient fishing tools and allows them to catch fish in the shortest possible time. ”
"You don't need to be in such a hurry, right?"
"Absolutely. There are people in the tribe who go out to hunt at any time, and every hunt is likely to cause casualties, and if they can switch to fishing, it can save people's lives. You say......"
"Alright, alright. I'll admit you're right, can't you?"
Realizing that he couldn't say anything, Tyrant wisely chose to admit defeat.
"I'm going to collect fish. ”
At this time, the set up fishing rod happened to have a motive, the hook was disengaged, and the storm immediately ran over, obviously not wanting to entangle with the witch.
Without waiting for the sun to rise overhead, Fengyun and the others stopped fishing, and the fresh meat used as bait had run out.
The harvest is a fish with a neat barcode, the largest is more than two hundred catties, and the smallest is two or three catties.
There are sixty-eight articles in total.
Fengyun roughly estimated that the total weight should be more than two thousand five hundred catties.
The harvest was far greater than he expected.
He didn't expect that there were so many fish in the river, so big, so easy to catch.
According to the current situation, a person can catch at least hundreds of catties of fish in a day, as long as he is not lucky, and it is easy to exceed a thousand catties of fish.
This harvest has far exceeded the harvest of hunting.
Of course, fish can't be compared with brute beasts, but when you go out hunting, the prey you hunt is not all brute beasts, on the contrary, brute beasts are less than one-tenth of the total number of prey, and the vast majority of prey are ordinary beasts.
Compared with ordinary beasts, fish is not inferior in any way, and the taste is much better.
Besides, the totem warriors in the tribe are not like Fengyun, they have a special ability to swallow, and they can transport food almost indefinitely.
Even if they eat ordinary food, they only eat a little more, and they are more likely to be hungry, and it is definitely more than enough for a person to have more than 100 catties of fish a day.
There will be a lot of fish left over after deducting the part they eat, and even if they have children and increase the population, they don't have to worry about not having enough to eat.
What's more, not all of people's food is meat, on the contrary, most of the food people eat on weekdays is plant-based.
The combination of meat and vegetables, plus the fish caught, even if they open their bellies, they can't eat it vigorously.
There is a large surplus of food, and it is very difficult for the tribe to prosper without facing danger to obtain food, which is also the most fundamental reason why Wu wants to insist on rewarding the wind and clouds.
"Let's take a look, how is the fishing effect of the fish card?"
Without waiting for Fengyun to pack up his fishing tackle, Storm grabbed his shoulder and walked towards Yuka.
"Uncle Tyrant, there's no need to be in such a hurry. I'll put away my fishing gear first. ”
"You don't have to clean it up. Let Lei Boy and Bamboo clean up the rest. ”
"Okay. I need a favor from you, though. ”
"You say. ”
"After all, a fish card is different from a fish hook in that it can firmly hook the fish's mouth. When harvested, if the fish are aware of the danger, they struggle so that they run away. Originally, I wanted to prepare a tool, which can be ......"
"I see what you mean. Do you want me to deal with the fish that got stuck in the fish like I did with the big herring, and not give them a chance to escape?"
"Yes. ”
"No problem. It's up to you. ”
As he spoke, he bent down, grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground, and when he squeezed it vigorously, it turned into extremely hard lumps, and then broke it into small pieces, each the size of a finger.
Fengyun didn't dare to have any contempt for these inconspicuous little mud blocks.
Not long ago, Storm used such a small mud block to easily kill a giant herring fish that was close to two hundred catties.
"There's play. ”
Fengyun had just grabbed the thin line, and before he could untie it from the stick, he felt the force and vibration from it, and there were already fish stuck in the fish jam.
Fengyun began to pull the fish card towards the shore, and the movement appeared very gentle.
At this time, Wu, Lei and Zhu all rushed over.
Although Storm asked Lei and Zhu to help pack up the fishing tackle, they couldn't help but be curious in their hearts, and they all wanted to know how the fishing effect of the fish card was, so they all came over.
"There you have it, you have ......"
Bamboo screamed excitedly.
Soon, a dark shadow approached the water.
Before the fish could actually emerge from the water, the storm flicked its fingers, and a small block of mud shot out, making a sharp sound of breaking the air.
According to the previous fishing experience, as long as the fish are pulled out of the water, they will struggle nine times out of ten, with the strength of the fish card, the possibility of breaking free will be very high, and it is necessary to shoot in advance.
The mud passed through the surface of the water and directly through the fish's head.
A wisp of bright red spread from the fish's head, and it didn't move, it died.
"It's a pot-bellied fish, the meat is very tender, and there are a lot of eggs in its belly, it's delicious. ”
When Ray grabbed the gills of the fish and lifted the fish to the surface, Storm immediately recognized its identity.
The size of the pot-bellied fish is not too big, less than 20 catties, but it has finally been harvested, and it also makes everyone full of anticipation and curiosity, wondering how many fish this fish card can catch in the end.
Their expectations are not too high, and if they can have about ten, they are satisfied.
In their opinion, the next fish card does not need to spend too much effort, and no one needs to watch it specifically, and it is qualified to have some harvests.
It turns out that they still underestimate the fish card too much.
When Fengyun put away all the fish cards, there were as many as seventy fish caught, and there were always less than three hundred fish cards.
Almost four fish cards can catch a fish, this result greatly exceeded everyone's expectations, and even Fengyun felt a little surprised.
The only regret is that the fish caught by the fish card is not particularly large, and the largest is less than 50 catties, but the weight of the fish is relatively uniform, there is no particularly small, and the smallest is more than 5 catties.
Combined, the total weight is close to 1,500 catties.
"Cloud, I was wrong. I shouldn't doubt yours. ”
After seeing Yuka's strong fishing ability, Lei was very single, and immediately apologized to Fengyun.
"It's not your fault. The appearance of the fish card is indeed inconspicuous, which will inevitably make people suspicious. To be honest, I was a little surprised myself. ”
"The fish card is such a good thing. ”
Wu exclaimed.
"That's true. Not only is it easy to make, but it also saves time and effort. ”
Violent agrees with Wu's opinion.
The fishing tackle was put away, the fish card was put into the clay pot, and the group was ready to go back.
Fengyun gets special preferential treatment, you don't need to take anything, just walk back empty-handed.
Back at home, put down the fishing gear, Fengyun began to cook.
Manpower limitations, when they came back, they were not able to bring all the fish back, ready to pick up another trip, but some of the more delicious fish, they did not let go.
A bamboo pole was passed through the fish's mouth, and it was threaded in a long string, and Storm and Thunder picked them all back.
When Fengyun was cooking, Bamboo helped to pick the seasonings, cleaned them, and cut them into the right size according to his requirements.
Fengyun was originally going to handle the fish by himself, but Wu offered to help.
Fengyun quickly saw that the Wu Guild was probably worried that he had not seen a fish and did not know how to deal with it correctly, and would break the fish gallbladder.
How did he know that he had seen all kinds of fish in his previous life?
However, Wu wanted to help, and Fengyun didn't think to be polite.
Handling fish is not only slippery and sticky, it is very difficult to master, it is easy to hurt yourself, and it will also be fishy.
When making fish, Fengyun searched his memories and found all the ways he knew how to make fish, and finally he picked four.
The same braised fish, the same steamed fish, the same miscellaneous fish stewed, the same fish head soup.
Although the seasoning is far less abundant than in the previous life, the fish is good, the water is good, the braised is rich, the steamed is sweet, the stew is rich, and the fish head soup is delicious.
Each dish is a rare delicacy.
It would be even more beautiful if you could have a bowl of white rice soaked in fish soup.
Fengyun let out a regretful sigh in his heart.
It's a pity that Fengyun knows that he can only think about it.
When he and Bei went out to look for spices, they deliberately searched for them, but they never saw the rice, not even the more similar plants.
It is impossible to eat white rice, at least for a short time.
